Through those 156 minutes I saw, I lived, I was embraced by a lifetime film experience.

I read the book by Michael Punke some months before and even when I was reading it, I was deeply touched by the extraordinary story of Hugh Glass and those men.

When I finished reading, I was sure that only brilliant actors as Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy could perform Glass and Fitzgerald.

I was anxious to see the film. But after, when I saw the film on theatre, I was out of my mind.

It went beyond my expectations.

I wasn't ready for such beauty and powerful images, sounds, costumes, music and above all, performances.

I can't describe what I felt watching the film but in the end, as I was leaving the theatre, I felt I left my heart in those landscapes.

So, thank you Mr. Alejandro G. Inarritu for your vision, thank you Mr. Leonardo DiCaprio for touching my heart and thank you Mr. Tom Hardy for, once again, you transcend yourself. But also to Will Poulter, to Domhnall Gleeson, to all the cast and with a special and deep thank you to all actors that performed the indigenous people and showed us one more time the deep wisdom and beautiful way of living and facing life.

The Revenant took my heart.

Time will pass by but it will remain forever as my favorite poem because it was made by visionary poets.

Carolina Beatriz Ângelo (Guarda, April 16, 1878 - Lisbon, October 3, 1911) was a doctor and Portuguese feminist. She was the first woman to vote in the country on the occasion of the Constituent Assembly elections in 1911.

She attended the high school in his native city, Guarda. Later she joined the Polytechnic School and Medical-Surgical in Lisbon, where she graduated in medicine in 1902.

Suffragette, stood out as a militant of the Republican Women's League, founder and president of the Feminist Propaganda Association.

Being a widow and having to support their children, allowed her to plead in court the right to be considered "householder", thus becoming the first to vote in the country in constituent elections on 28 May 1911. In order to prevent such example could be repeated, the law was changed the following year, specifying that only the male householders could vote.

Surgeon and activist for women's rights, Carolina Beatriz Ângelo was the first woman to vote in Portugal.

Portuguese women would have to wait for Salazar and by the year 1931 to be awarded the right to vote and yet, with restrictions: only could vote those who had secondary courses or higher, while for men it was still enough to read and write.

The electoral law of May 1946 extended the right to vote to men who, being illiterate, paid to the State at least 100 tax coins and family of the chief women and married that knowing how to read and write, had its own assets and paid by least 200 tax coins of property tax .

In December 1968 it was granted the right to political vote to women, but the parish councils continued to be elected only by householders. Only in 1974, already after the April 25, would be abolished all restrictions on the electoral capacity of citizens based on gender.
